Simon just screams "Pete Carroll DB" .. 6-2, 200 .. 40 in between 4.4 and 4.5. Man-to-man specialist but still pretty rough around the edges. However with our secondary he would have a lot of time to sit back and learn from some of the best DB's in the game.

Supposedly a lot of people were surprised he declared and felt he would have gone much higher had he stayed another season. Could be a gem in Round 4-5.

I don't know, he seems slow footed and doesn't play with the kind of frenetic energy Carroll covets. He also seems unwilling to put his body into tackles. In rugby, (I'm a rugby coach) we call players who throw their arms out toward ball carriers while moving their bodies out of the way "matadors." I see a lot of matador in the kid. He rarely makes solid contact with the ball carrier.

He has the size measurables, but he is pretty widely considered as a CB who struggles with man press coverage. Looking at his tape, I'd have to concur. He is a guy who if you look at prospects measurables -- might infer he can do that. But he doesn't show an aptitude for that when you watch him.

Wow, listening to the incident makes me so angry. Why is there still so much blatant racism in the south? It's disgusting, what the hell it's 2013 for Pete's sake. Gross. I don't know how he didn't punch that dude in the mouth.
